Patent CA-2401094-C (CA)
Inventor: HILL ROBERT L
IPC: A61M5/28
Filed: 2002-09-03
Granted: 2010-03-16
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a drug delivery device. The device includes an interior chamber and a seal structure. In accordance with the present invention, the interior chamber may include a first, liquid medicament compartment and a second medicament compartment. The seal structure is conditionable to permit fluid to pass therethrough upon pressurization of the fluid. The seal structure preferably includes a sealing member which moves from a first sealed position into a second by-pass position upon pressurization of the liquid injection solution in the wet compartment of the housing assembly. Such by-pass movement of the sealing member enables the liquid injection solution to flow through the seal structure into the second ingredient compartment and mix for injection.

Abstract: A tool for loosening or tightening vehicle wheels nuts using a multiplying torque.        At one end of the main body there is a rotating shaft, the other end sits on the ground to create a resistance platform.        The rotating shaft has a nut socket on its end, which engages onto one of the wheel nuts. There is a lever arm parallel to the main body, connected perpendicular with a one directional ratchet system to the rotating shaft. The lever arms opposite end connects to a pry bar which rotates on a pin connected to the main body. When this pry bar is moved back and forth in a winching motion it causes the lever arm to go back and forth. This action in combination with the lever arm ratchet system will turn the rotating shaft in one direction creating multiplying torque on the wheel nut.

Title: Arrangement for mounting a screen
Inventor: ISOLA ANTTI
IPC: D21C7/00
Filed: 2002-10-23
Granted: 2010-12-14
Abstract: 11 The present invention relates to an arrangement for mounting a screen (20) in a continuous digester used for making chemical pulp or paper pulp. Such a digester comprises a substantially cylindrical pressure vessel arranged in an upright position, the pressure vessel having a smaller diameter at the top end of the digester than at the bottom end of the digester, the diameter of the di- gester being changed at regionally defined areas by means of one or more conical sections (4). Said screens are mounted at these conical sections to remove liquid from chips or pulp in the digester. In the present arrangement an upper edge (21) of the screen (20), which, in the operating position, is located higher, is arranged in the region of the conical section (4). In particular, the screen extends substantially to the section of the conical section, which has the smallest diameter.

Granted: 2011-07-26
Abstract: An electric vehicle 10 with fuel cells 30 mounted thereon has a fuel tank 20 that stores a fuel therein, and a connector receptor 40 that is connected to the fuel tank 20 and is open to the surface of the vehicle body. A connector of a predetermined hydrogen supply device is fitted in and attached to the connector receptor 40, so that a supply of fuel is fed from the hydrogen supply device to the electric vehicle 10. The connector receptor 40 is provided with a fuel lid for covering over the connector receptor 40. When it is determined that the fuel cells 30 are in a working state, the fuel lid is not opened in response to input of an opening instruction of the fuel lid in the course of fuel supply. When it is determined that the fuel lid is open, on the other hand, operation of the fuel cells 30 is not started in response to input of a starting instruction of the fuel cells 30 in the electric vehicle 10. This arrangement of the invention enhances the safety of fuel supply to any system with fuel cells.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and a process for producing a windable carbonaceous material sheet, which is obtained by continuously curing a long uncured fiber sheet which is obtained by using short fibers to make paper and which contains uncured resin to produce a resin-impregnated cured sheet, and then continuously carbonizing it, and its production process. For the object, a long uncured fiber sheet (la) is conveyed by conveyance means which is equipped with one rotation belt set (2) comprising a drive roll ( 2a ), a follower roll ( 2b ), and an endless belt (2c) which is put on and around these rolls (2a, 2b). A resin-impregnated cured sheet (lb) is produced by heating and pressurizing the uncured fiber sheet ( la) by resin curing means (3) which is arranged so as to nip the uncured fiber sheet through the endless belt (2c). Further, the resin- impregnated cured sheet is continuously conveyed in a horizontal direction, and then is carbonized by the apparatus for producing a carbonaceous material sheet which is equipped with a carbonization treatment chamber for carbonizing a carbonizing material and guide rolls which are provided in the carbonization treatment chamber, so that a carbonaceous material sheet is continuously produced. Then, this iswound up. Accordingly, production efficiency is remarkably improved, and its handling property and conveying property are excellent.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un support amélioré, un système et un procédé permettant d'implanter une valvule cardiaque mitrale qui évite la formation de boucles des points de suture et peut également resserrer les armatures de commissures de la valvule. Ce support peut comprendre deux plaques mobiles l'une par rapport à l'autre, une plaque étant fixée à la couture de la valvule sur l'extrémité d'entrée du flux de la bague de la valvule et l'autre qui se fixe via des sutures ou similaires aux commissures de la valvule sur l'extrémité de sortie du flux. La séparation de ces plaques place les sutures en tension et resserre les commissures. Ces sutures peuvent être des brins ou des filaments ou peuvent se composer de bandes plus larges d'un matériau biocompatible souple. En cas d'utilisation de bandes, elles recouvrent les pointes des armatures de commissures pour éviter la formation de boucles des points de suture. Les longueurs souples de matériaux s'étendent directement entre les commissures de la valvule ou peuvent s'étendre dans le sens radial vers l'intérieur à partir de chaque commissure jusqu'à un élément central vertical. De préférence, un coulisseau est créé par les longueurs flexibles de matériau adjacentes à chaque armature de commissure, par exemple, en croisant des filaments de suture sur, ou radialement vers l'intérieur à partir des armatures de commissures. Lors de l'utilisation d'un élément vertical, les longueurs de suture s'étendant dans le sens axial au delà des pointes des armatures commissures pour créent une sorte de tente qui empêchent les points de suture de former des boucles autour des pointes lors de l'avancement de la valvule le long d'un ensemble de sutures pré-implantées.

Abstract: MPLS labels can be used to tunnel data packets through IP networks. At a start point such as a router or network terminator, the IP destination address is examined and one or more labels generated which relate to the topology of the network. The labels can include QoS information. The packet is then sent to the destination via a label switched path. At the destination the packet may be sent on via a further label switched path by examining the IP address from the received label and generating on or more fresh labels for the passage of the packet though the further label switched path.

Abstract: A remote unit (14) couples to an obstacle detection sensor (13) to both detect an obstacle in the path of a movable barrier (11) and operability of the obstacle detection sensor (13) itself. Information regarding these and, optionally, other parameters (such as battery status) is coded and transmitted as a short burst wireless transmission to an interface unit (15). The interface unit (15) decodes the message and provides controlling information to a movable barrier operator (12) as appropriate when an obstacle is present, when the sensor (13) is faulty, or when other monitored parameters are out of normal bounds. In addition, the interface unit (15) can provide local alarms (auditory and visual) when detecting one or more of the above conditions.
